What types of atoms are people "made" of?

Featured Replies

Did I miss something????...... I'm doing a PhD in chemistry and I've never heard of the element anthanium, or is it a different name for another common element? :confused: :confused:
Oops. A typo. It should have read lanthanium. Well spotted.

cesium?????

 

 

 

what???????

as for the parts of an atom being present' date=' the only ones I`m aware of that exist will be Electrons, they often wonder freely within our systems causing damage (Free Radicals) often the Oxygen atom is responsible for these, hence taking Anti-Oxidants such as Vit A, E and C and the mineral Sellenium, is used to combat these by absorbtion.[/quote']

 

...vitamin C helps guard against spontaneous combustion :eek:

I was expecting one of those silly web quizzes: "What sort of atom are you!"

 

I was a little disappointed, actually. :rolleyes:

So the question is.... If I were going to melt people down for their base elements, which element would make me the most money per person?
You'd get about $84 for the materials in a human body.

 

Apparently :D
